BLING! The light bulb officially went off in this brain of mine. After nearly two years of thinking about it, I have finally realized the reason I have not yet been fired.
I once thought that he kept me around because I gave really good sale and coupon tips. Then, I thought it was because I have incredible knowledge of college football (especially for a girl!) Could it be that occasionally I will get him a burrito from the push-cart lady too? I sometimes think he is pretty entertained with the absolutely ridiculous frivolous stories about my friends.
But, what exactly is that stand-out quality about me that outweighs my naps, being late, leaving early, blogging, myspacing, shopping at lunch, wearing flip flops, etc.? Well friends, I'll tell you - he keeps me around because of my buttons. BUTTONS! So simple, but that has to be it. It was after he was looking at me with a mixed expression of embarrassment, excitement and disgust during our 15 minute daily morning meeting today, that I realized why I still have a job. I walk out of his office to realize that my white button-down shirt, was just that. Buttoned down, er...unbuttoned down. Yup, two of them had come undone and there was a very clear view of my cleavage, bra and all. And THAT, ladies, is how to keep your job!
